Very helpful spreadsheet. Will make it easier to think about my possibilities. Thanks!

Wondering about the Dealer Installed option - Front Grill, painted Cyber Grey…

Would not Carbon Flash be more appropriate, as ALL of the other bits on the C7 are in Carbon Flash…?!?

Also, no Nav for 1LT trim levels? Bummer, as is the need to fork over 4k if one wants the HUD…

Hoping the aftermarket provides a way for a stock HUD to get into 1LT C7s…

Now about that L88 engine option…

Nav is available on 1LT C7s; HUD is not.

Helpful stuff! My target is to get my C7 for $55K, including Texas sales tax. Based on my options, I need about a $4000 discount off MSRP. And that does not includes the USAA and GM credit card rebates (another $2750). Looks like I am waiting for 2015! Maybe Chevy will have the dual clutch trans on the order guide by then. Jim Mero can tell us how much time that saves on a lap of COTA. I'll never get my C7 lapping the 'Ring, so those tracks will be more likely.

Since we were talking about the $395 option (IL4) for the suede seat inserts .... I have a feeling that suede inserts will not hold up as well to wear than the regular leather that comes standard on the 1LT and 2LT seats?

I guess the optional suede inserts is for both the seat bottom and the seat back?

any opinions?

That is a good point,although the 3LT does have suede (Alcantra) as well.

I was concerned about this also, and created a thread in the C6 forum asking 4LT owners how the micro-suede has held up. No issues reported. I also did a Google search and learned that it holds up quite well. I was satisfied enough to order both IWE and suede seat inserts. I think it looks really good.

As much as the "Napa" leather GT seats costs in the 3LT, I don't know if I would want to pay another $395 for suede (Alcantra) seat inserts that replace so much of the expensive Napa leather on the 3LT.

Just a thought

What are the suede inserts exactly? Does it also give the seats a different look? Thanks.

Here is what it looks like in an Audi



Should not be much different.

Here is all leather in the C7

Why do you show a 1 piece removable roof panel as an option? Also, why do you show next to the wheel options that two complete sets of wheels will be ordered?

If you elect to get the transparent roof it is an option. There is only one set of wheels you get when ordering anything but the standard wheel. This will be corrected from the sales guide.....In previous years, if you wanted an optioned wheel, they gave you two sets (you paid for, not free). One from the factory and the other, say like chrome, was a dealer installed option, hence, two sets. For the C7, it's now changed to just one set....

Okay, makes sense. You might want to add the word "transparent" to the roof option.

Thanks for your work on this

Unfortunately, we must pay both when ordering the museum option.
The standard delivery charge is mandatory regardless of any other arrangements.
That's right. It's called union agreement with the car haulers!
